Associate Employee Benefits Consultant – Health and Risk
Location: Farnborough or London
Working pattern: Hybrid
The opportunity
Join our Health and Risk Consulting team and develop a career advising organisations on employee benefits that protect their people, manage cost, and strengthen workforce resilience. Working alongside experienced consultants, you will turn client and market data into clear recommendations, contribute to renewals and strategic reviews, and progressively take ownership of client relationships and delivery.
You can be based from either Farnborough or London. The role combines virtual working with attendance at your base office and client sites in line with business and client needs.
Aon is in the business of better decisions
At Aon, we shape decisions for the better to protect and enrich the lives of people around the world.
As an organisation, we are united through trust as one inclusive team, and we are passionate about helping our colleagues and clients succeed.
What your day will look like
As an Associate Employee Benefits Consultant, you will work alongside a Principal Consultant and multidisciplinary colleagues to deliver high-quality advice and service across a portfolio of large corporate Health and Risk clients.
Your work will include renewal and market-review activity, benefit benchmarking, claims and utilisation analysis, benefit design, provider engagement, client reporting, and implementation follow-through.
Responsibility will increase as you demonstrate the required capability and gain experience: from owning defined workstreams and presenting agreed recommendations to managing day-to-day relationships and, when ready, a small portfolio of your own clients.
